Great headphones. Broken case.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones themselves are wonderful! However, the zipper on the case broke within the first few hours of use. The case is now unusable which is a shame because it is a nice looking case. I contacted Sony for a replacement and they said it was a known issue but still could not send a replacement. Great headphones, know you will most likely need to get a third party case.

The third gen were better
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wanted to upgrade from my third gen headphones but the noise canceling was worse on these pair. The earcups were a bit smaller as well which made it less comfortable. The audio was about the same though which is still excellent for listening to music.
